Pod Parent Flowers
 
 
Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range Warm 90-70°F, cooler season Cool-Intermediate 75-58°F. This plant is growing as an epiphyte on a large mango tree. If pot culture is utilized, the pot should be large enough to accommodate several years growth, as this species produces a long rhizome between pseudobulbs. Culture is generally as for the genus Cattleya.
 
Comments: Parent plant: Medium-sized plant.

Flask Information
Availability: We have sold all of the flasks for this item.
You should: Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask.
You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.

You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.

You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had.
Yield Estimate: 450 plants (based on flask surveys done 09/24/2015 through 11/29/2016)
Yield estimates are only approximate, but may appear to be fairly exact numbers because they are a combination of large rough estimates in remaining mother flasks and more accurate small estimates in reflasks.
Plantlet Sizes: From many flasks 10 - 80 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 04/28/2016 through 05/27/2017)
From one most recently surveyed flask 40 - 80 mm (05/27/2017)
